Features and stuff

• Small: Only around 2kb in size (using microbundle).
• Fast: Current and previous vDOM data is diffed instead of the actual DOM for performant updates and rendering.
• Virtual DOM: Diffing occurs only on state and store update for more efficient DOM updates.
• Flexible Syntax: Freedom to use JSX, Hyperscript, or Object syntax.
• Lifecycle Methods: All DOM elements have the ability to trigger mounted, updated, and unmounted lifecycle functions.
• Local Component State: Every component can manage state locally.
• Global Application Store: One source of truth which makes other state management libraries (like Redux) less of a need.
• Event Delegation: Uses event delegation and only event types defined within the application for increased performance.
